I'd quite enjoy myself being away from us too Sadly, we don't get the choice. 🙂

Cats treat all humans with contempt. Those providing food, rubs, warmth and games are still treated with the same level of contempt, but are allowed to act as distractions for a couple of minutes.

Tsk. You think of yourself as a fairly strong minded, objective person not prone to bandwagon jumping. One cat pic and suddenly you're at the army recruitment office insisting there is a Kitler army, and you must be allowed to join. >sigh<

2nd prize in the raffle is 2 DM chats with SOG. 🙂 Apologies to SOG for cheap shot. Did Bowie not actually fall into such thinking for a while, based he said on what he was reading?

Oh heck. I was on a call to my doctor this morning, and heart rate was discussed, while pointing out the pigeons on the back wall to my feline overlord. I've spoken to 2 neighbours since, and didn't pick up on any hostility. But I'm now concerned about them misconstruing what I was doing. Anything from Nazi salute, fascist salute to imitating Musk.

I was thinking the same about Biden. 🙂 Even with the debate gaffes and everything else. It still takes a huge amount of energy to even be on such a punishing campaign schedule at that age.

Thanks Badger. That's what I thought in this day and age the thread would be about. 🙂

It fills in a fair bit of a squad, without the drive, creativity and focal point to get it over the line. So yeah, not as good as the side finishing 4th, even if we would be a bit more forward in games. It would need a freshening up.

Possibly not the best phrase to use around our new manager. And "Roma wasn't built in 12 games," is right out. 🙂

SRexit means SRexit 🙂

"They mentioned there might be an opportunity and I jumped at it with both hands," said Gape. Just think how much better he's going to be when he uses his feet to jump. 🙂

It's not great when the most worrying curse in the family isn't the djinn from the artefact stolen in colonial days, building our estate over an ancient burial ground or that there's a 50% chance of spontaneously combusting on our 60th birthday. It's the dread of passing along the curse of supporting Saints to the next generation. 🙂 I do find I can put up with a lot more since SaintsWeb opened the S&M subforum. Basically watching this season's highlights while wearing leather replica kits. I met a Leicester fan today. I mentioned it wasn't going well for their new manager. They were half way starting to complain, when I said I supported us. Just silence, then a "oh". No mockery, no sympathy. Just a mental shuffling away from our car crash of a season. Work comments have generally vanished. No one's quite that heartless 🙂 I'd really like to get past Derby's record. They were abject. I'm reminded of them every time I'm turning over from the start of Robbie Savage on 606. I don't want that thought to become "and their team did better than ours" every week.

Pointless

It will all be worth it at the end of the 10 year plan. #trusttheprocess #nohumiliationnogain

Be sure to be completely clear on the name of the game. The 1964 game of Dome of the rock, paper, scissors nearly resulted in war across the middle east.

Rumour has it that uncertain markets will result in them having to sell off the first letter of their name. 🙂

I guess the revenue is coming from Panama, Greenland and Mars?

What's the point of raising a generation of remote controlled assassins, when their trigger words could be read out by any class reading of Catcher in the Rye? Of Mice and Men was also on the list. Now Richard Gere might disagree, but I have reservations about such relationships.

Perhaps Musk got to invite all the other third rate Bond villains?

Thanks for confirming. The penny should now have dropped for even the most bloody minded of humanity. 🙂 With the change of manager, and the players adusting to his tactics, it's a little more undecided again how well the unit would cope. For example, Will was an excellent fit for a lot of RM's tactics at that level. But as he's not a full DM or AM, may not fit with the new boss' requirements. Under RM we desperately needed an Adams replacement, and someone with the all round game of Romeu. Juric may get a lot more out of TP and Sule (if they are in the Championship) and need a diffetent sort of player. AA got lots of goals,but without a capable attacking plan, may not replicate that again. Not to mention the frustration of another unsuccessful PL stint. Individual talent does cover lots of cracks. Ramsdale, KWP and Fernandes there. Surprised not to add Downes into that this season, and there seems to be a dip there (not 100% at present?) of late. McCarthy (Baz) Stephens, Bedders(Edwards), Wood (Taylor) Bree(Suga), Charles (Bragg), Downes (Aribo), Manning (Welington) AA(SAA), Fraser (Edozie) Archer (TP) Looks okay, but needs help and fresh faces to really push. And towards an overhaul to stay up, if we go back up.

As per Weston's post. You should bookmark it, for the next time you have an utter failure. Something that is only ever moments away. 🙂 Very disappointing to see your return so quickly go back to all your bad old habits.

Not convinced about his tracking back. Looks a bit stationary. 🙂

Surely his statue outside the ground is underway?

Ah. It must have been another 6 year old stamping their foot every time someone mentioned that we could do with a DoF to provide strategic oversight/ football experience to our club. 🙂

1) "Yes, it does." when someone questioned if we had a DoF, in the traditional sense of the role. When it was pointed out that the person you said was in that role, might not actually have those responsibilities, you reversed into hiding. 2) That's nice. Since it's not part of the point that you reversed into hiding, and it's something you do, I can ignore this.
